Full Description
Start your day with a comfortable transfer from your Punta Cana hotel (if you selected the pickup option) to Bayahibe, where you’ll board a modern catamaran for an unforgettable cruise. As you sail, you’ll enjoy the sea breeze, Latin music, and unlimited drinks from the open bar.
Your first stop is a magical natural pool — a shallow sandbank in the sea where you can swim, interact with starfish, and take beautiful photos. Then, continue on to Saona Island. Once there, you’ll have around 3 hours to soak up the island vibes: walk along white-sand beaches, swim in crystal-clear waters, or simply lounge and relax.
After working up an appetite, you’ll be served a delicious buffet lunch that includes Dominican-style barbecue, salads, and more, with beer and soft drinks also included. Throughout the trip, a professional, friendly guide will be there to entertain, inform, and ensure everything runs smoothly.
Finally, after your time on the island, you’ll board the catamaran again for a relaxing ride back, with more music and drinks to round off a perfect Caribbean day.
